Mrs Hoare

[This portrait does not appear in any of the Silvy daybooks in the archives of the National Portrait Gallery.]

Stylistically, this portrait ought to appear in Volume 1 of the daybooks, but it is not there. However, the sitter visited the studio again on 25 April 1861 and a portrait from that sitting appears in a later daybook (Volume 3, page 146, sitting 3268), where the lady is identified as 'Mrs Hoare.'
